I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

Lu Xuan had no intention of lingering in the Prince's residence.

The younger middle-aged man, Li Yuan, looked at Zheng Maoshan beside him.

Then the two of them bowed to Lu Xuan.

"Alright, Senior Lu, please make yourself at home. We'll take care of things here."

"We have also made some progress regarding the prince's matter. This person is a member of the infamous Heavenly Demon Sect in the Xuan Domain, and the prince was most likely poisoned by him."

Zheng Maoshan began to speak.

When Lu Xuan heard Zheng Maoshan speak, he realized that the old man was quite capable.

A single sentence pinpointed the true situation.

As expected, the older ones are more experienced.

"Alright, then I won't disturb you while you're working."

Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

Then he jumped back into the hole he had just been in.

At this moment, the Fire Phoenix Fairy had already killed all the remaining Tiger Guards.

One by one, the Tiger Guards fell into pools of blood.

The phoenix feather dagger in the Fire Phoenix Fairy's hand was also stained with blood.

The two elders were still hanging there.

Even the Fire Phoenix Fairy couldn't break those chains; only a fifth-rank expert could do it.

These two elders are named Lao Mo and Lao Yu, respectively.

Old Mo's personality is rather withdrawn and gloomy, and his overall mood is more depressed.

But Lao Yu is more cheerful and optimistic.

"Mr. Lu, you've finally arrived!"

When Lao Yu saw Lu Xuan return, he was immediately filled with excitement.

They were genuinely worried that if Lu Xuan died outside, they would be completely unable to get out.

If we had untied them earlier, they might have had a chance to escape.

During this time, they all figured things out.

If there's a chance to survive, then I'll work for Lu Xuan from now on.

From now on, they will attack wherever Lu Xuan points!

Absolutely no ambiguity!

"Hehe, elders, you've kept us waiting."

Lu Xuan flicked his finger, unleashing two bursts of spiritual energy that shattered the chains binding the two men.

Once the chains were removed, the two felt their internal strength rapidly recovering.

This long-lost sense of power also gave them a feeling of being blessed with rain after a long drought.

After breaking free of their restraints, the two regained some strength.

After exchanging a glance, they decisively went to Lu Xuan, clasped their hands together, and knelt down.

"Thank you so much, Elder Lu, for saving our lives. We two are now willing to follow your lead! We hope you will take us in."

Although they are quite old, it would be embarrassing for them to kneel down and beg for shelter.

Fortunately, Lu Xuan on the other side was no younger than them.

The most important thing is to be highly skilled; then there are no other factors to consider.

Therefore, the two of them knelt down without hesitation.

"Oh? What's going on here...?"

Lu Xuan was somewhat surprised to see that the two were willing to submit.

After all, both of them were highly skilled cultivators.

No matter what, they are all experts at the peak of the fourth rank.

If given the opportunity, breaking through to the fifth rank shouldn't be a problem.

Killing someone is easy, but subduing them is extremely difficult.

"Hehe, since you two are willing to join my Lu family, I naturally welcome you."

"Get up first, then we'll talk."

Lu Xuan raised his hand and lifted the two of them up from the ground.

The two people in front of them immediately felt Lu Xuan's vast power.

The Fire Phoenix Fairy also breathed a sigh of relief.

She was also worried that the two elders were stubborn and unwilling to submit to Lu Xuan, and she didn't know how Lu Xuan would deal with them.

"Old Lu."

"Congratulations, Elder Lu, on recruiting two elders."

The Fire Phoenix Fairy stepped forward to offer her congratulations.

"Hehe, you two were previously the Supreme Elders of the Golden Light Sect. You will receive the same treatment as before. In addition, I can guarantee that you will both break through to the Fifth Rank within five years!"

Lu Xuan said in a calm tone.

The two supreme elders had just escaped from this death threat.

Hearing Lu Xuan's words, he was initially stunned.

I thought Lu Xuan was just making some very standard, polite promises.

But upon closer listening, something seemed off.

"Huh!?"

"wrong!"

"Did I hear that right?! Elder Lu said... that we can reach the fifth rank within five years?!"

Even the usually taciturn Lao Mo couldn't help but widen his eyes at this moment.

He stared intently at Lu Xuan.

There was an undisguised fervor in his eyes.

Old Yu, who asked the question, also stared at Lu Xuan with the same eager look in his eyes.

Lu Xuan nodded slightly.

"You heard me right. Within five years, I guarantee you will break through to the fifth rank."

Lu Xuan gave his approval.

Old Yu and Old Mo exchanged a glance.

At this moment, they all knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Xuan as if by prior agreement.

"Mr. Lu, from now on you are our second parent!"

The two shouted.

"Get out of here! I don't have any sons as old as you!"

Lu Xuan kicked each of them, sending them both flying.

When the Fire Phoenix Fairy saw this scene, she couldn't help but smile.

To be fair, these two elders were very good people.

The truly greedy ones were the former sect leader, Jin Guang Zhenren, and the deputy sect leader, Luo Yang.

These two were the ones who turned the entire Golden Light Sect into a chaotic mess.

After cooperating with the Prince of Xiping, they even started doing some extremely cruel and tyrannical things inside and outside the Golden Light Gate.

This caused the reputation of the Golden Light Sect to plummet.

Of course, the Fire Phoenix Fairy also bears responsibility for these things.

Although the Fire Phoenix Fairy was also envious of the treatment and conditions that Lu Xuan offered to the two elders, she also believed that her master would certainly not be stingy with her.

For the Fire Phoenix Fairy to have her master travel so far and venture into danger alone to save her life was already incredibly touching.

Naturally, I won't ask for too much.

"Let's go, let's leave this place first. It seems the Inspectorate still has things to do here, so let's not disturb them."

Lu Xuan said.

Lu Xuan had heard that the Supervisory Commission was only established in very high-ranking places.

It seems there's one in Jinyuan City too.

However, these supervisory offices usually don't take any action, since their duty is to supervise all officials and collect reports from the public, specifically targeting corrupt officials.

However, the extent of such intervention depends on the situation.

If the other party's backer falls, they will basically launch a heavy attack. If they don't fall, their public statement will be to remain inactive and collect evidence.

Now that the supervisory office in this prefecture has taken action, it is clear that they want to settle the matter of the Prince of Xiping.

As Lu Xuan and the others left, they waved and said goodbye to Zheng Maoshan and the others from a distance.

Zheng Maoshan and the other man watched Lu Xuan leave with great respect.

When Lao Yu saw that the person who came was Zheng Maoshan, he was obviously surprised.

Clearly, he still had some impression of Zheng Maoshan.

Lu Xuan led the three of them away from the palace and headed to his previous inn.

They booked a few more rooms for the group to stay in.

"Take a shower first, rest for half a day, and come with me to collect debts tonight."
